Although Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox are the most popular Web browsers, there are lots of surfers who prefer the style and features of Avant Browser, a customizable app that's based on on the same layout engine as IE.

Integrated search engines have quickly become one of the most used features in Web browsers, and Avant Browser's search is a bit different than Firefox or IE. Brian Cooley demonstrates how to customize your built-in search engines with Avant Browser.

If I'm not mistaken, Avant is based on IE7 (even IE8 so far looks pretty slow; check out http://techqi.blogspot.com/2008/06/and-winner-of-browser-speed-wars-is-not.html). No amount of plugin cunning can ever overcome a speed deficiency, IMHO.
